I hate February!!!

I know... it's not a very uplifting title, but I do hate February! It's cold, dreary, and just blah. I'm sick of being inside, I need a vacation somewhere warm and sunny, but looks like that ain't gonna happen, so we're stuck trying to entertain ourselves. At least there were 2 sunny warm days in a row! The girls wanted to paint their faces so I gave them the paint and told them to have at it. Caroline painted Elizabeth a rainbow princess

and Elizabeth painted Caroline an ice cream sundae. I thought it was pretty funny. They only kept them on for less than an hour this time, but it entertained for about 20 minutes.

Bella wanted a heart. That was easy enough.

I told her to make a happy face and this is what I got. I love it! I wish it would have been in focus. So cute.

I tried to think of something to do with Caroline so we made a felt headband. She loved it and so did Liz,

so the next day she asked if she could have 2 friends (a rare occasion) come over and all make their own. They seemed to have fun doing that.

Today, President's Day, we got out and went sledding. We haven't done much outdoor play this year. I'd love to send them outside, but we just can't seem to make that a happy place, so we haven't done much. It was fun to do today for a little bit.

These 2 could have stayed longer, but the little ones were done.

I got Charlotte all bundled up and she ended up falling asleep before we got in the car, so she stayed in there and ended up sleeping 3 hours. That doesn't happen too often, and funny enough, when it does, she's usually bundled up in her car seat.

After that, we started a paint project which we don't have pictures for yet. Watch for those to come! And there ya have February in a nutshell!
